Ravens coach John Harbaugh said the team will retain OC Marty Mornhinweg.

It is music to the ears of Joe Flacco, who said his "relationship" with the coordinator "continues to grow." Mornhinweg oversaw a putrid passing offense in 2017, but he got the running game on track as the Ravens surprisingly scored the ninth-most points in the league, although the defense deserves quite a bit of credit. If the offense is going to be better moving forward, they need some help along the offensive line and at receiver. Jan 4 - 11:12 AM

"Our relationship continues to grow," Flacco said Monday. The "growth" Flacco speaks of was a 5.72 YPA in 2017, as well as 18:13 TD:INT ratio. Somewhat surprisingly, Mornhinweg did manage to oversee the league's ninth-highest scoring team. Defense played a part, but so did a potent rushing attack. Mornhinweg is no one's idea of a creative play-caller, but Flacco is probably the bigger problem in Baltimore. The Ravens are Mornhinweg's fourth NFL coordinating job. Jan 1 - 1:21 PM

Ravens announced they will retain OC Marty Mornhinweg for the 2017 season.

Baltimore also announced DC Dean Pees and special teams coordinator Jerry Rosburg will return next year, but Mornhinweg is the real shocker. Mornhinweg took over for Marc Trestman after Week 5 allegedly due to Trestman's propensity for forgetting about the running game, but Mornhinweg did not do any better getting the backfield going during his 11 games in charge. The Ravens did average almost four points more per game under Mornhinweg, but the running game actually regressed after Trestman was fired. None of that matters now as Mornhinweg will head into the offseason looking to build an offense worthy of the Ravens' playoff-level defense. Tue, Jan 3, 2017 11:14:00 AM

Mornhinweg hasn’t been much of an upgrade after taking over for Marc Trestman in Week 6. The Ravens lacked big plays all year and never established a run game. Their offense was a large part of why they missed the playoffs for the second straight year. Baltimore will likely be searching for another offensive coordinator this offseason.

Depth Charts

Ravens coach John Harbaugh expects Kenneth Dixon (knee) to be ready for OTAs.

Dixon suffered a torn meniscus which required a full repair last summer. The injury cost him the season, but he should be close to full health by this point. Dixon also was suspended for six games last season -- he served it while on injured reserve -- and watched Alex Collins take over as the lead back. Even healthy, Dixon is not a lock for a big role.

It's his second substance abuse suspension in as many years. A converted wide receiver, Waller logged 10 catches for 85 yards and two touchdowns over 238 snaps last year. Waller was also suspended for a drug violation during his time at Georgia Tech. If the 24-year-old plans on continuing his career, he'll eventually have to file for reinstatement.

Ravens fourth-round OG Nico Siragusa has been diagnosed with a torn left ACL, MCL and PCL, and is done for the season.

Devastating. The No. 122 overall pick had been getting some first-team reps at the Ravens' unsettled left guard position. Now he'll be settling in for what will probably be a year-long rehab. Siragusa has impressive college film and measurables, but was old for a rookie. He will be a 24-year-old sophomore with a shredded knee in 2018. Enduring an unfathomable run of injuries, the Ravens have lost seven players for the season since June 1.

Ravens RG Marshal Yanda (ankle) is expected to be ready for training camp.

Yanda suffered a fractured ankle in Week 2. He will likely be healthy before camp, but the Ravens will likely take it slow with their All-Pro guard. Yanda returning will be a big boost, but the Ravens could still use more help on the offensive line.
